More copies of this ISBN:In Fact: The Best of Creative Nonfictionby Lee (edt) Gutkind
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Creative nonfiction, also known as narrative nonfiction, liberated journalism by inviting writers to dramatize, interpret, speculate, and even re-create their subjects. Lee Gutkind collects twenty-five essays that flourished on this new ground, all originally published in the journal he founded, Creative Nonfiction, now celebrating its tenth anniversary. Lauren Slater is a therapist in the institution where she was once a patient. John Edgar Wideman reacts passionately to the unjust murder of Emmett Till. Charles Simic tells of wild nights with Uncle Boris. John McPhee creates a rare, personal, album quilt. Terry Tempest Williams speaks on the decline of the prairie dog. Madison Smartt Bell invades Haiti. Many of the writers are crossing genres-from poetry and fiction to nonfiction-symbolic of Creative Nonfiction's scope and popularity. A cross section of the famous and those bound to become so, this collection is a riveting experience highlighting the expanding importance of this dramatic and exciting new genre. Synopsis:Gutkind collects 25 examples of narrative nonfiction--liberated journalism that invites writers to dramatize, interpret, speculate, and even re-create their subjects--all originally published in "Creative Nonfiction," the journal that he founded in 1994.
